Why FOYA Exists
When many veterans leave the military, they don't just lose a job they lose the brotherhood that came with it.
The camaraderie, the shared purpose, and the feeling of belonging can suddenly disappear.
FOYA was created to bring that connection back.
Through duck hunting, the outdoors, and time spent together in the blind, veterans rediscover something many of them have been missing - community, laughter, and brotherhood.
FOYA Impact
- 54 Veterans Served
- 10 Hunts & Outdoor Outings
- 3 States Served
- 102 Waterfowl Harvested
Because of sponsor and donor support, FOYA delivered measurable impact during the 2025-2026 waterfowl season. Every contribution, financial or gear, was deployed directly into the field supporting veterans.
During the season, FOYA veterans harvested a banded Canvasback in Mississippi. A rare moment that highlighted the conservation and wildlife connection that makes waterfowl hunting so meaningful.
